The SPARTE 700 series is a top-tier dual-axis antenna that boasts dish sizes ranging from 20 to 24 feet.
Its high gain and large aperture make it the ideal choice for tracking any flying target, such as aircraft of launch vehicle. This antenna series features a rock-solid design that guarantees peak performance under all conditions: an aluminum alloy reflector that enhances surface precision, SCM tracking feeds for trustworthy and accurate tracking, and dual-drive motors for redundancy and backlash prevention.
Furthermore, for applications that demand the utmost in performance, the SPARTE 700 series is also available in skid-mounted and trailer transportable and 3-axis gyro-stabilized versions.
